Sue Ryder is one of the largest charity retailers in the UK with over 400 shops.

Every item sold in our shops generates funding so we can continue to provide 2.7 million hours of expert medical, practical, bereavement and emotional support every year, in our hospices, in people's homes and in the community.

We are here to make sure that everyone approaching the end of life or living with grief can access the support they need.


We have a much-loved presence on high streets across the country - with a range of innovative shops, including boutiques, vintage and retro shops, and large format stores.

Our Newark shop is located in the market square and has been open since 2004.

We have a great range of donated fashion, so you can refresh your whole wardrobe at a fraction of the high street price.
